His name graced the billboards of the ballet\u00a0<em>Notre Dame de Paris\u00a0<\/em>by the outstanding choreographer Roland Petit to the music by Maurice Jarre. On June 11 and 12, our compatriot demonstrated the high level of Kazakh ballet, performing with the renowned Japanese company Maki Asami Ballet.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It should be noted that Arman Urazov represented Kazakhstan in Japan at the special invitation of the famous ballet master Luigi Bonino, Roland Petit\u2019s assistant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe have been aquainted with Luigi Bonino for a long time. He is a wonderful person and a professional who pays great attention to even the smallest details of dance and musicality. In 2016, he brought Roland Petit\u2019s choreographic masterpiece&nbsp;<em>Notre Dame de Paris<\/em>&nbsp;to the Astana Opera stage. Later, he presented the outstanding choreographer\u2019s famous ballet production&nbsp;<em>Copp\u00e9lia<\/em>&nbsp;to L\u00e9o Delibes\u2019 music. Luigi Bonino met me in Japan, and we rehearsed together, prepared for the performance for ten days,\u201d the principal dancer shared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The performance took place at the prestigious Bunka Kaikan Hall in Tokyo. Astana Opera\u2019s principal dancer brilliantly portrayed Captain Phoebus and won the love of the Japanese viewers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI am very proud that I was invited to perform the part of Phoebus, because my repertoire also includes the role of Frollo in this ballet. This is not my first performance of this part abroad. Our company has already presented the ballet&nbsp;<em>Notre Dame de Paris&nbsp;<\/em>at the Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg, where I also portrayed Phoebus. Certainly, performing with colleagues you see every day, dancing with them on the same stage is one thing, but working with the dancers you do not know well is another. This time there was even more responsibility, as I represented Kazakhstan, our ballet company with my performance and strived to show all my professional skills. I am grateful to the artistic director of the ballet company Altynai Asylmuratova for her support,\u201d Arman Urazov noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cToday I can say with confidence that the Kazakh ballet is at the world level. This is evidenced by the fact that our dancers perform abroad, they are invited to participate in performances and gala ballets. This is also confirmed by our previous successful tour performances in Oman, Italy and Spain, as well as this trip,\u201d Arman emphasized in an interview with journalists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Japan is famous for its variety of ballet companies. One of them is Maki Asami Ballet, which our dancer worked with. Despite the fact that this was his first visit to the Land of the Rising Sun, the principal asserts that art has no boundaries, and he made friends with foreign colleagues after the first rehearsal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a reminder, Bunka Kaikan Hall is one of the most prestigious venues in Tokyo. In a two-day performance, the Maki Asami Ballet, as well as guest soloists from France and Italy, took the stage together with our compatriot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cCaptain Phoebus is one of the most technically difficult parts. After all, this hero is on stage from the beginning to the end of the performance and does not sit out backstage. After the variation, he again dances another variation, and then the pas de deux. In a word, this part requires a lot of strength, both technically and emotionally,\u201d Arman Urazov said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The talented dancer is harmonious onstage both in terms of his acting skills and good technical training. Among his awards are victories in prestigious international competitions not only in Kazakhstan, but also in Germany. Today he performs leading roles in the opera house\u2019s ballet productions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to note that Astana Opera\u2019s performers win admiration with their art of the audiences of the near and far abroad. They contribute to the solidification of the Kazakh choreographic art in the world history of ballet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Astana Opera\u2019s principal dancer Arman Urazov won over the Japanese audience.
